Early yesterday, you probably didn't think that there was anything that could prevent the Steelers from beating up on the Jets at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. After all, Pittsburgh demolished both the Colts and the Ravens coming into their showdown with New York. So c'mon, the Jets? Beating the Steelers? HA. Laughable.
As it turns out, though, the Jets did end up beating the Steelers on Sunday afternoon—and did so pretty handily. The final score of the game was 20-13. But the game wasn't really that close. At all. And today, there are quite a few Steelers fans who are blaming Justin Bieber—yes, Justin Bieber—for their favorite team taking an L.
It seems Biebs showed up at a Bible study session that several Steelers players attended on Saturday night. It's still a little unclear why he did it. But he posed for pictures with a handful of players, including Cameron Heyward, Arthur Moats, and Bruce Gradkowski. And less than 24 hours after he did, the Steelers lost. So #SteelerNation is upset and using the hashtag #BlameBieber at the moment to tell the world who they blame for their team's recent troubles.
Is it a little bit ridiculous that they're blaming a pop star for Ben Roethlisberger's blunders? Yes. But it's still amusing and, for the record, the Steelers aren't the first team that Bieber has "cursed," either. Scroll down to check out a bunch of the best #BlameBieber tweets that we've come across. Oh, Biebs.
